this weeks sat challenge... to make a card using an old forgotten stamp. one that used to be a favorite..
I have had this dragonfly stamp forever and a day..
colored with prisma/gamsol, the butterfly and a section of the cattails are cut out and mounted up.
the swirl border is from delight in life.
I stippled over everything with just a hint of marvy-ochre-to add some highlights.
a touch of my fave gold cording and glitter and voila, there you have it
what do you think..
thanks for taking a look!!

A totally stunning card! I love the dragonfly which is wonderfully coloured and the bull rushes beneath look amazing, especially with the portion that you've 3d'd! The stippled background is fantastic, I wonder what kind of brush you use for this, I can't seem to get this lovely subtle effect when I try it? A very beautiful and vibrant card.
